Leduc City Council will hold public hearings on Monday, April 13, 2026, to gather community feedback on two proposed updates to local development plans. The meetings will take place at 5:30 p.m. in the Council Chambers at the Leduc Civic Centre.
The first proposal, Bylaw 1246-2025, involves administrative updates to the city’s long-term land use guidelines. These changes include updating local maps and removing references to the Edmonton Metropolitan Region Board. That regional planning body was dissolved in March 2025.
The second proposal, Bylaw 1247-2026, focuses on the Black Stone neighborhood. This plan suggests reducing the designated commercial space in the area from 4.08 hectares to 3.00 hectares. In place of that commercial land, the proposal looks to increase medium-density residential housing from 1.98 hectares to 3.69 hectares and remove a north-south collector road connection. To account for the removal of that road, a small portion of land will be reallocated to low-density residential development.
According to the developer, the reduction in commercial space in Black Stone is intended to be balanced by a future expansion of commercial sites in the neighboring Brightwell development. This move is designed to create a larger commercial hub at the intersection between the two communities. Both bylaws were first introduced for consideration on March 23, 2026.
Residents who would like to speak regarding these proposals during the public hearing must pre-register with the City Clerk’s Office by calling 780-980-7156 or emailing [email protected]. Council is expected to proceed with second and third readings of the bylaws during the same meeting following the public input session.
